Respectfully returned. This Bureau has no arrangement by which they transport freedpeople on the within mentioned terms. If this party wants these people brought here he should send them the money and then they can pay their own way. It amounts to the same thing to him and the plan proposed to have them come by the Bureau is impracticable. 
Wages are as good in Corpus Christi as at Hempstead.
